Forecast conditions for America’s 250th birthday could be great in some places and soggy in others. Showers and storms are on my radar for the Upper Midwest into the Great Lakes this Fourth of July weekend.
Late Morning and Sunset Hour:
Along the Gulf Coast, the East Coast and much of the Southeast, ample heat and humidity may spark pop-up storms during the afternoon and evening.
Remember to head indoors if you hear thunder! Lightning will be a possibility as the storms pass by.
The bigger concern is heat from the East Coast to the Gulf Coast I’m tracking feels-like temperatures in the triple digits! Even with the typical summer pattern, people making outdoor plans should prepare for both heat and quick-hitting storms by packing sunscreen, water and rain gear.
Stay connected, I’ll continue to monitor trends for your holiday weekend.
